2. Rollins Makes Compelling Case

Knowing that Brock Lesnar rarely shows his face on free TV (or even the WWE Network, at that), the build to a PPV match is unique, compared to the traditional face-to-face confrontations we see.

But Seth Rollins and Paul Heyman did a nice job getting the train back on the tracks Monday night after being derailed for much of the past month. Rollins even offered solid reasoning for why he has a great chance to slay the Beast at WrestleMania.

After noting that Lesnar had demolished the likes of Big Show, Samoa Joe, Braun Strowman and Goldberg, Rollins observed that Brock had squeaked by guys such as Daniel Bryan, AJ Styles and Finn Balor. Seth pointed out that he’s a similar size, build, and style of wrestler as those guys, meaning he might be the kind of guy who could give Lesnar trouble.

It was an interesting comparison, and it at least steered the conversation back to Brock versus Seth, which is funny that we had to do in the first place: It’s only the WWE Universal Championship. We haven’t seen it in more than a month with WrestleMania less than four weeks away.
